SCC Announces Peppa Pig: My First Concert in Spring Get ready to “Splish Splash” in muddle puddles because Peppa Pig and her family (including new baby sister Evie) are on their way to the Scranton Cultural Center at the Masonic Temple on March 31 at 6 PM. Tickets start at $35.85 (includes fees) and will be available for purchase beginning October 24 at 10 AM at the Fidelity Bank Box Office at the SCC in person or by calling (570) 344-1111, or via Ticketmaster.

In Peppa Pig: My First Concert, families will see Peppa Pig, along with Mummy Pig, Daddy Pig, George and baby sister Evie, learn all about the different sounds that instruments make together. Family audiences will enjoy some of their favorite music from the show played by a live orchestra and discover some other exciting orchestral pieces perfect for children. Plus, some little ones will be invited to join Peppa and her family to make music of their own! Peppa Pig: My First Concert includes orchestral renditions of popular songs from the animated TV series, such as “The PEPPA PIG Theme” and “The Bing Bong Song,” along with classical pieces like “In the Hall of the Mountain King,” a selection from The Nutcracker, and other selections by composers such as Beethoven and Mozart. “PEPPA PIG has always inspired kids to explore the world with curiosity and joy, and My First Concert brings that same spirit to the stage,” said Matt Proulx, Senior Vice President of Global Experiences, Partnerships and Music at Hasbro. “As the show tours the U.S., it will introduce countless children to the thrill of a live orchestra — a joyful first that families can share together.” While 2026 marks the first time Peppa Pig: My First Concert will make its way across North America, it has played to sold out houses across Europe winning rave reviews, from audiences of all ages, along the way. .
